Outdoor Power Equipment (Lawn Mowers, Snow Blowers, Chain Saws and more) Discussions

It's almost middle of January and less than inch of snow accumulation has fallen.   There's no snow forecast in sight.  The temperature is heading up to 50-60F this weekend.  I'm excited about upcoming the warm weather but really want to see some real snow to play with.

Just saying, that's all.  It's been quiet on this forum for the last 3 days.  Too quiet.  I'm going to shift over to collecting lawn mowers instead of snowblowers if this keeps up.  Anybody feels the same way?

Furget about red and green.  How are ya with white and black?

At this rate only needed the old Ariens SB for 1 or 2 snows in Indy Area.........next year might just leave SB fully winterized until really needed.......

Well check that now predicted to get 6-10" toinght

Snow comming down heavy in Southern New Jersey right now, they are calling for 3 to 5 inches.   This will be the most snow we have gotten all winter.  I already put the snow blower away for the winter, and  took the rototiller out.  I really don't feel like taking it out but if i must i must

We are expecting 12"+ of snow starting Wed night and finishing on Thur afternoon.  Where is Spring? Hopefully this is it!

Well, we took a road trip to Alberta on Wednesday, came home on Thursday night - to face 6 foot drifts on top of the old stuff and 20 miles of unmaintaind road to get here!  Took a while for the last part, but we made it OK.  Blew and chipped out a footpath thru 6 feet of snow to get from the car to the house and the rest will just have to wait for spring.

Nice "Welcome Home". I guess you'll appreciate this one!



It's almost over.

Cheers

Friggin varmit!  And I suppose you lied also bout the next one that's sposed to hit us....tonight?

No more snow around here, just lots of rain.  This damp weather makes it feels colder than it actually is.

Not complaining about lack of snow now.  Already summerized the snowblower, changed car tires to summer set.  Just clay bar the car for the first time in 5 years I have it, then I may possibly do a polish, or paint sealant.  Feels like a total makeover!  The car looks and drives nice with summer performance tires.  Got a little sideways this morning before the tires warmed up.  Ahhh....RWD with power to break loose.  I'm ready for summer.  :)

Also scoping Craigslist for unusually good deals.  So far nothing.  These are the same ads that's been running all winter with the same prices.  CL doesn't seems to follow the law of supply and demand around here.  :)  Some guys still trying to unload a Snow Commander for $700 for the last 3 years.
